NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIPTION LAWS.
Few readers or publishers of papers
fully and clearly understand the laws
governing subscriptions. The decisions
of the United States Court on this sub
ject are :
1. Subscribers who do not give ex
press notice to the contrary are con
sidered as wishing to renew their sub
scriptions.
2. If subscribers order the discon
tinuance of thair periodicals, the pub
lisher may continue to send them un
til all arrearages are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse tc
take their periodicals from the post
office to which they are directed, thej
are responsible until they have settled
their dills and ordered them discon
tinued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish
er, and the papers are sent to thc
former address, they are held respon
sible.
5. The courts have decided that re
fusing to take periodicals from thc
office, or removing1 and leaving them
uncalled for, is prima facie evidence
of intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance they
are bound to give notice at the end oj
the time if they do not wish to con
tinue taking it; otherwise the publish
er is authorised to send it, and the
subscriber will be responsible ' until an
express notice, with payment of all
arrearages, is sent to publisher.
The latest postal laws are such that
newspaper publishers can arrest any
one for fraud who takes a paper and
refuses to pay it. Under this law the
man who allows his subscription to
run along for sometime unpaid, and
then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it "refused,"
and have a postal oard sent notifying
the publishers, lays himself liable
to arrest and fine, the same as for theft.

Experiments made by D. H. W.
Wiley, chemist-in-chief of the de
partment of agriculture at Wash

The mistake we think, that some
people are making is in supposing
that Gov. Tillman is afraid of
Senator Butler's candidacy.-Spar
tanburg Herald.
Our contemporary is himself
mistaken. There isn't a man, wo
man, or child in South Carolina
who has any such belief.
The strongest trump Tillman
has to play in South Carolina poli
tics in this 3'ear of grace is
the fact that both the factions, in
deed ali the factions, in the Re
form party recognize the indis
putable fact that he is absolutely
necessary to the movement-that
without him the whole thing would
karflumix.
Representative Hansborough, of
North Dakota, has introduced a bill
into the lower house of Congress
appropriating $1,000,000 for the
destruction of the plant known as
the Russian thistle. We would
suggest to our own immediate rep
resentative that he introduce a bill
for the destruction of nut grass,
wire grass, and cockle burrs in
South Carolina.
It is reported from V/ashington
that President Cleveland will veto
the Bland bill, sometimes called
the seigniorage bill, and that such
veto will cause a disruption of the
cabinet. Perhaps this would bring
Cleveland to his senses.
Uncle George Tillman was right
when he said that Cleveland was
no better than a Republican in his
financial theories and would prove
a tool of Wall Street.
In the railroad tax cases, wo are
glad that Judge Simonton rose so
high above the seething waters of
political influence as to render this
righteous decision.-Colleton Press
and Standard.
The water was up to his neck
and still rising. He had to rise
above it and swim ashore, or go
down ; and when Simonton made
np his mind to pull for the shore,
he came a-whooping, hand over
hand, and his toes struck the hard
.bottom in about three licks.
The Columbia Stale has soured

The Port Royal Shipping Co
has put a line of passenger steam
ers between Port Royal and Liver
pool. The first steamer, Mexican,
will sail on April 27. The fare
from Augusta to Liverpool is $58.
This will be the first passenger
steamship that ever cleared from a
South Atlantic port for Europe.
Judge Simonton has already de
cided that the South Carolina rail,
road must pay its taxe-* for the
past three years with penalties and
costs. On last Saturday he filed a
decree dismissing the complaint of
the Richmond and Danville rail
road. This suit was identical
almost with the South Carolina
railroad cases. In each case the
cads claimed that their property
vas assessed too high, however,
they paid the amount of taxes that
they considered fair, and brought
suit restraining the collection
the remainder. Judge Simonton
decides that the railroads have n
remedy at law. Why Judge Simon
ton did not decide these cases lou
ago is a matter of conjecture
32i
CLEVELAND'S POLICY.
Cleveland's policy is playing the
wild with Democracy. New York
has gone Republican under his I <
reign, hitherto Democratic, and
Pennsylvania, always Republican
has'gone deeper into the mire than
ever before. The news from far
away Michigan is to the effect that
in the municipal elections held
throughout that State the - Repub
lican party bas swept everything
A PROMISING OUTLOOK.
The Manufacturers' Record of
Baltimore says: Reports from ali
parts of the South indicate that
the general business outlook is
very promising, though the volume
of trade does not yet show any
very large increase. But, if judged
by the southward trend of capital
and immigration, and by the evi
dent increase in organization of
new enterprises, the South is enter
ing upon the most prosperous era
of its history.
Thc immigration especially is
one of the most noticeable of the
times, and throughout the North
and West tho disposition to move
South seems to be assuming pro
portions of national importance.
Special reports from New England
show greater desire than ever be
fore to invest in Southern cotton
section tells the Manufacturers'
Record that a number of large
mills will be built in tbe South by
New England people.

A SIGN OF THE TIMES.
The New York Herald publishes
iu a recent issue an account of a
mo6t extraordinary plan proposed
by one J. S. Coxey, of Ohio, to
procure from Congress the passage
of bills to furnish work and bring
relief to the vast army of unem
ployed scattered over the North
and West. On Easter Sunday Mr.
Coxey was to leave his native town
(and we suppose he left) with all
persons in sympathy with his
movement, at least five hundred
souls, he says. Continuing their
march they are to be joined by
others at different points, and Mr.
Coxey estimates that when they
reach Washington on May 1st the
raoks will have swelled to one
hundred thousand persons. They
expect to surround the capitol and
demand from Congress the passage
of bills that tfill provide work for
thi?m. They will bear no weapons,
and "Peace on Earth" will be in
scribed upon their standard. Of
course, Coxey is a crank and the
undertaking Quixotic, but this
wild march of probably thousands
of desperate men is a sign of the
times to which our legislators
would best take heed.
Farmers Spindled.
PORTLAND, Ind.-A pair of swin
dlcrs have worked several farmers
along the State line within the last
few days. The game is the light
ning rod scheme with a new addi
tion. Garrett Hornau, a German,
was induced to sign a contract to
have rods placed on his barn. The
contract was sealed in an envelope
by one of the agents, who wrote 11
his name on it and handed it to
Homan to keep until called for. t
Homan's family became suspicious f
and opened the envelope.
The day following the agent re- I
turned, and, finding the envelope 1
opened, told Homan that he had
violated the postal laws, but ho
would compromise for $280. A
note was promptly given. Four
other farmers were eaugh? in the | r
same way for from $100 to $500. ? |?

A GEOEGI? TKAGEDY.
1 Girl Murders Her Father to
Protect Her Mother.
ATLANTA, Ga., March 25.-A
special to the ^Constitution from
Elomer, Banks county, says thst J.
F. Willis was killed last week by
iiis daughter Lillian, and his wife.
The news of the tragedy did not
leak out for several da^, when a
3on Francis, eleven years old,
told it to some nieghbors. Daugh
ter and mother were both arrested
taken to Homer and given a pre
liminary trial. The boy testified
that his father came home from
svork about dark and, setting his
bottle of whiskey upon the cup
board, called for his supper. Atter
beginning to eat his meal, a dif
ficulty arose between the father
and mother, but the former sat
iown on a chair before the fire
when Lillian, the girl, about fifteen
years old, struck him with the axe,
cutting a gash in his skull. Rising
ap and screaming, Willis threw
back his head and the mother took
the axe from the girl and cut him
across the throat with it. The
ieed was done, and in a very short
time Willis died. The girl says
.'he struck the blow with the axe
if ter having cut her father's throat
tv?th a razor, while Willis was
choking her mother to death. After
drawing the razor across the throat
)f her father and seeing that he
,vas not dead she picked up the
ixe and finished him. Her plea
s that she did the deed to save her
nother's life.
Judge J. B. Estes of Gainesville,
md Hubert Estes of Macon were,
ippoiuted to defend Mrs Willis,
md the girl ; R. B. Russell, the
iolicitor general, represented the
state. The crowd remained an
xiously awaiting the verdict of
he jury until yesterday after
?oon when the jury rendered a
.erdict turning the girl loose.
The verdict was met with de
nonstrations of applause by those
u the court room.

DAM TROUBLE, THIS.
May Be a Lawsuit on the City
of Augusta's Hand-.
There is possibly a big law suit
ahead for the city of Augusta, re
lative to the dam across the riycr
at the Locks.
This piece of masonry is a very
important factor in Augusta's in
dustrial advancement and any at
tack upon it will of course, be
signal for warfare of the most
earnest kind. The trouble that is
brewing, comes from the Carolina
side and two able lawyers, Messrs
Croft & Tillman, have been se
cured to conduct the operations
against this city.
The Carolina version of the
question is as follows : When the
present dam was built three aud
one-third acres were secured from
Mr. Henry Townes, on whose
place the Carolina end of the dam
rests. It now turns out that the
land was entailed on Mrs. Townes
during her life time and at her
death reverted to her two sons and
Mr. Townes had only acted as a
trustee for her, and as such could
only negotiate for such an interest
as his wife held. Recently the two
heirs, Mr. Wills Townes, who
worked at the newspaper business
in this city for sonis time, and Dr.
H. H. Townes, of Edgefield county
have arrived at the age of 21 years
'and think they have something to
say in the matter.
A Chronicle reporter saw Mr.
James Tillman, one of the attorney
yesterday and the gentleman said
that he had addressed a letter to
Mayor Alexander requesting that
the dam be removed from th? land
of his clients. This is but the
initial step in a long legal con
troversy that will follow, for of
course, the courts will be appealed
to'and each side will fight to the
last trenches.
Mr. Tillman stared further that
;hile no exact value had been put
on the land that they considered
it worth, about $100,000. The city
>f Augusta admits no irregularity
.hatever aud will contest?ffce
claim of the Carolinians with the
utmost vigor.
Airain Victorious.
The decision in favor of the
Stale of the railroad tax cases, adds
another laurel to the Reform crown,
the enemies of States rights are
again defeated, commencing with
the Coosaw case and ending at
least for the present with the rail
road tax cases. The State has been
$200,000 gained in this case alone
will more than offset any expense
the State has been forced to incur
in sustaining her Sovereignty
